Merry Christmas…

I’ve got a 97′ Blazer S-10, auto-tran, with 75K on it.  I was doing 60 on
the higway, went to accelerate, and got nothing but grinding.  Slowed down
and pulled of the highway, and sat there for a bit.  Started up again and
the truck wouldn’t shift from 1st to 2nd without me letting off the gas (It
may have been in limp mode, I don’t know).  Anyway, I made it home and
checked the fluid.  It was full, but has some "flecks" in it.  PLUS (as a
bonus)  I don’t have Reverse anymore.  It doesn’t engage at all, just sits
there.

So to sum up:   Heard a loud grinding while accelerating.  No Reverse.
Won’t shift to second without letting off the gas.  Fluid level is fine and
not dark/dirty but has flecks in it.  Other than that it’s fine.  (HA!)

I know I have to get it fixed, so my question is this:
Am I looking at a total tranny replacement or is this a valve/pump/linkage
issue???

Any advice would help before I go to the mechanics. (Tomorrow)

Thanks,

Anyone have Ice Race schedule info for the Colorado area?

I’d like to make an extended test drive of a 4×4 Ford Escape.

Is there anyone anywhere who rents them?

I have a pair of KC daylighters or hi-lights, or something like that on my
Bronco (I dont really know..I didnt put them there!).  They seem great.
Amazingly bright, they didnt look cheap, etc.  The only problem with them
that I ever had (besides previous owner’s cheap splices..fixed!) was that
the passenger side light seemed to bounce up and down a little bit.
Thinking this was either just part of aux light systems (never having had
one before) or something like that, I never gave it much attention.  Today,
however, I resolved to fix it.  I was going to simply tighten it’s mounting
bolt, but it was already tighter than I could manage with my tiny little
crescent.  SO I got out a  long rachet and took the thing off to have a look
see.
Lo and behold!  The inside of the steel case of the light had some rust on
it.  It was just surface rust (lucky!) but enough to un-seat the bolt which
A) mounts the light and B) keeps the light adjusted properly.  So, I’m
currently stripping the rust off, getting ready to repaint the thing and
going to do its mate also.

So..to those of you who are posting asking about new lights, you may want to
take ‘em apart (I dont know if you can do that to the HID lights…check!!)
and rust proof them beyond how they come.  The inside of the bulb dish was
mostly bare of paint even where it was not rusty.

Hopefully this can save someone else from having to fix them later on down
the road.

I need a floor shift conversion to change my ’69 six cylinder to a floor
shift.  I have seen several kits but all I have found require cutting rods
etc.  Does anyone make one that is a straight bolt up once the hole is cut
in the floor?

Thanks
